- Pukana Game Lyrics Meaning
The Maori haka performed by the All Blacks, has become famous around the world, though few realise it's origin or meaning. Te Rauparaha, the warrior chief of Ngati Toarangatira, originally from Kawhia, had visited Tuwharetoa to solicit aid against the Waikato and Ngati Maniapoto tribes. The haka is a traditional Maori war cry. It is fierce and involves a male leader and a group of mainly men (women have only recently been doing the haka) chanting, stamping feet and hands in choreographed movements with some pretty scary looking pukana (that wild eyes with the tongue out that they do!).
